Keep drinking your copium. I'm sure it'll help against reality.

Except that the Republicans (that want and are pushing this) control: A) The presidency B) The Senate C) The US House of Representatives

The Democrats (that would oppose this) are in a majority, and thus control, have.... None.

This "proposal" is much more likely than you may think.

Only 40%?

When I lived in a smaller town, my electric bill was 80% of fees and connection charges.

Reminds me of the search suggestions I've seen about suggested search topic:

"Jalen Hurts Fiancee"

First thought was that this Jalen person must have gone all Sean Diddy on his fiancee. Then I found out that his last name is Hurts.

There has been lots of studies on this, and part of the issue is how do you get an honest rating of someone's happiness?

Here is an (10 year old) article from Time about and how studies show it's not an easy thing to judge.

Summary:

  • Self-Reported Happiness: Conservatives often report higher levels of happiness compared to liberals.
  • Research Studies: New studies indicate that conservatives may judge their lives and circumstances more positively than liberals.
  • Emotional Language: Analysis of transcripts from Congress shows that liberals use more positive words than conservatives.
  • Genuine Happiness: Studies on smiling intensity suggest liberals display more genuine happiness.
  • Impact on Behavior: Conservatives have a more confident style of self-assessment, which might contribute to their reported happiness.

The research suggests that the way conservatives and liberals perceive and report their happiness might be influenced by their self-assessment styles.

No, just for those that wanted a more "in depth" understanding of the image.

No, because a jelly has to be strained of the fruit pulp (it's why jelly is clear), and the fruit usually has to have a high pectin amount in it.

It would be closer to a jam though. But calling it a pastry would be like declaring your ham is a pastry because you put some apple jelly on it. It takes more than a spread to make it a pastry.

And the pizza dough doesn't make it a pastry, this is due to how yeast doughs (fermentation, in pizza dough also typically a high wheat protein count) are different from pastry doughs (high fat content, no yeast). To make an example, it would be like declaring a peanut butter and jam sandwich is a pastry. It's not.

For those wondering, this is a (cropped) version of a art piece called "The Celestial Zoo".

The original:

 
 

Today, a prominent child safety organization, Thorn, in partnership with a leading cloud-based AI solutions provider, Hive, announced the release of an AI model designed to flag unknown CSAM at upload. It's the earliest AI technology striving to expose unreported CSAM at scale.
